[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Spidermonkey Threadsafe Patch

[Thomas Berezansky]

I don't know if anyone else has this issue, but we do and at least one  
of the other locations we are working with does.

The issue is that SpiderMonkey won't build and test with the  
-JS_THREADSAFE option specified on any x64 Ubuntu version I have used.

The two attached patches attempt to resolve this, but do so slightly  
differently. The threadsafe patch file adds an option to turn the  
threadsafe option on, defaulting it to off. The nothreadsafe option  
adds an option to turn the threadsafe option off, defaulting it to on.

Technically the nothreadsafe patch keeps the current default behavior,  
but I think the threadsafe patch is the better way of doing it.
